Midmorning classes fit my schedule. Like the decaf coffee available at the desk.
Con: people absolutely stay on treadmills too long there should be a timer placed on that type of equipment because a person cannot even get on the treadmills for people hogging them
The Y downtown has a variety of activities that are enjoyable and are great for seniors .I do enjoy the work out machines and usually do not have to wait for access to them. The dressing room has always been clean although the showers could use more water pressure.
The pool area has been a concern for me lately. The ramp to walk into the pool has been a concern. The anti slip material seems to be peeling off and it can be very slick and dangerous.
Swimming pool and water aerobics class plus free weights
I like going at my own pace and not having people trying to upsell me on everything they're selling.
Pool, Jacuzzi, workout equipment, friendly staff
Proximity to where I live off of Henderson Street. I basically use a swimming pool and love it because it’s never too crowded.
Great pool, great workout equip
I enjoy the group classes; Y Warrior, Spin class, and body pump! I enjoy the dry sauna and they have child care, too. Makes life a little easier :)
The senior citizen exercise group, the cleaness of the building, the indoor pool , easy parking lot access and the customer service assistance
Great lap swimming pool. Just wish there were more blocked off lanes and wish you would heat the water a tad more. The vast majority of your swimmers are seniors,disabled, or small children. We are not competitive swimmers and don't need it to be competitive swimming cold!!
The fact that it exists! A relatively public affordable amenity nearby that serves as a great general resource for fitness and health, including facilities, instructors, weight rooms and pools, etc. in locations most people can get to easily enough to call them "local".

Friendly atmosphere, some program for everyone.
Nice people at the front desk.
Pauly and Johnnie are always welcoming. The equipment has a wide spectrum of attention to different muscle groups. The equipment is very well maintained. My physique is like a 30 y/o and I'm 64.

I loved the community-orientation of the downtown Fort Worth YMCA. I always felt so welcomed there.
Ashley, Paul, Mellisa, Serafin, Carls and the others whose name I never got, were all always so kind and helpful. It was truly a joy being there.
The gym became something of a 2nd home for me as my life was transitioning via Fort Worth.
Thank you everyone.
You have some first-rate people there. Carl and the front desk people are very welcoming. There are a lot of interesting characters there among the patrons.
Small class.. great instructor... Friendly environment
Cleanliness and good weight machines that are repaired quickly.
The staff are friendly and helpful. If you have any questions, they will answer you and if they don't they will over and beyond to find the answer.
I have only attended YMCA of Fort Worth - Downtown once. I greatly appreciate that my YMCA of FW membership allows me to access all locations! It is most convenient. I found that this YMCA location had all the equipment I needed available. Despite being in a small building, you have made excellent use of the space you have! I will definitely recommend this location to any of my friends who live downtown and look forward to visiting again when I am in the area.
I like the senior exercises with Mrs Betty on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
I love the swimming pool and the lessons.
Pool area is well kept.
Everyone is very friendly. The fitness teachers are well-trained and make their classes worth attending. The atmosphere is nice.
I like swimming laps and am glad that the pool is open when the Y is open now. I also like the sauna and would love a cold plunge for the sauna or hot tub or both. Would it be possible to at least adjust the shower closest to the sauna so that it has cold water. The way it is set up now there is cold water for 30 seconds and then it gets warm. Also, please repair the sauna door so it closes tightly. A sign on the door asking people to close it would be appreciated by many.
